Twelve teams are participating in the event and there will be 27 matches. These will be held till 7th October and going to be a feast for the cricket lovers.

Logos of All the Participating Nations


The participating teams are host Sri Lanka, defending champion England, former champions India and Pakistan, South Africa, Australia, West Indies, New Zealand, Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Ireland and Afghanistan. Ten Test playing teams are automatically qualified while Ireland and Afghanistan played qualifier to enter the final round.India is placed in Group A along with England and Afghanistan .It is hard to estimate the title favorites in T20 matches. T20 World cup is held for every two years. The first world cup was held in 2007 in South Africa. India won the first T20 world cup where India defeated Pakistan in the final match. 
ICC T20 World Cup Trophy


In 2009 England hosted the second edition of T20 world cup and Pakistan was the title winner and Pakistan beat another south Asian Sri Lanka in final. Third edition was held in 2012 in west Indies and England became the champion beating Australia. India team which won the inaugural T20 world cup could not even reach even semi-finals in the next two world cup matches. There are many favorable and unfavorable factors for Indian team to win the T20 world cup that will be played in Sri Lanka. Team India which was losing all the matches that were played abroad since the world cup win, is slowly coming back into its form. In the recent one day series that was played in Sri Lanka recently, India has won the one day series and also won in the only one T20 match.

Atmosphere of Sri Lanka is similar to India and this is the most favorable thing for India. Captains of many participating teams have changed but Mahindra Singh Dhoni is leading the Indian team for the fourth time in ICC T20 World Cup matches. Most of the players in Indian team have the experience of playing in the ICC T20 world cup. One of the main problems for Indian team is its lack of steadiness .Seeded second in Group A, which clubs them along side defending champions England and qualifiers Afghanistan, India were on a high after clinching the 50-over World Cup last year. But their fortunes took a turn for the worst soon after with Test whitewashes in England and Australia but India will come as better side here in Sri Lanka.

Bangladesh Football Federation selected 30 footballers for the preliminary squad of the AFC U-22 qualifiers scheduled to start at Kathmandu from June 2 on Tuesday. The players are requested to report to coach Syed Golam Jilani on May 10 on Thursday but Bangladesh national U-22 team’s preparation for the upcoming AFC U-22 Championship is yet to reach the full tempo due to the reluctance of the clubs on releasing players. In the last three days, since the introduction of the camp the number of the attendants was 10, 20, and 25.
Coach Syed Golam Jilani had little to say, “As the league is running, the clubs are not allowing the players to attend the camp. I have nothing to say but I am trying to continue my work with the available resources,” said Jilani. 


Bangladesh is pitted in group D alongwith Uzbekistan, Jordan, Yemen and hosts Nepal. The qualifiers will kick off in Kathmandu on June 2.

Stuart Law has resigned as Bangladeshcoach after nine months in the job, citing family reasons. He will stay on till the end of June, when his contract expires. His decision to quit comes less than a month after Bangladeshreached the final of the Asia Cup, widely seen as one of their finest achievements. "It is with great regret and a heavy heart that today I announce my stepping down as the head coach of Bangladesh," Law said.
He said he will move back to Australia after two and a half years in the subcontinent, which included a coaching stint with Sri Lanka. "Living away from the family and not seeing people growing up, I think we all understand that family comes first," he said. "Cricket has been a huge part of my life but over the years I have realised that there is nothing more important than the family and if they are not happy then I am not happy and something had to give."
Stuart Law 

Law had taken over as national coach last July, and though the initial results were disappointing - including losses to Zimbabwe- the home season ended with Bangladeshupsetting India and Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup, before losing the final in a last-ball finish.
The decision appeared to have come as a surprise to those in the team. Tamim Iqbal said he was completely unaware about Law's intentions after the Asia Cup. "I'm completely taken by surprise. But family comes first," Tamim told ESPNcricinfo.
Bangladesh media committee chairman Jalal Yunus said the board understood Law's decision. "As he (Law) has said the family was his priority and that should be the case for all of us," Yunus said. "We are sorry to see him go, especially at a time when under his guidance the Bangladesh team is doing really well and showing good consistency."

The International Cricket Council (ICC) Board were informed on Sunday that the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have agreed the Bangladesh tour of Pakistanwill take place and will involve one One-Day International and one Twenty20 International to be held in Lahore. The ICC Board, having due regard to its duty of care to match officials and other ICC staff, requested that the PCB to immediately provide a comprehensive security plan for consideration.

Thereafter, the ICC’s Anti Corruption and Security Unit will commission a localised risk assessment to determine whether its officials and staff are appropriately protected by the proposed security plan, before any further decision is taken in relation to their appointment.
 The ODI is scheduled for 29 April 2012 and the Twenty20 will be played one day later at the same venue.
 BCB President Mustafa Kamal said: “The public of Pakistan have been deprived of cricket and we felt that we needed to support them. The reception we received when we toured Lahore and Karachi on our security visit was overwhelming.”
 Zaka Ashraf, the PCB chairman, said: “I want to thank the BCB and the Bangladesh Government for their support for this tour.”
 ICC said it will advise of other agenda items considered by the ICC Board at the conclusion of the meeting tomorrow (Monday) when ICC will hold a press conference
